Offering pool views, Safaya Luxury Villas - Adults only in Nungwi offers accommodation, free bikes, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a terrace and water sports facilities. Both WiFi and private parking are available at the lodge free of charge. My wife and I have traveled to many places around the world, but our stay at Safaya was truly one of a kind. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by incredibly helpful staff who went above and beyond to make our experience special. The food was excellent, offering great variety and quality that kept us looking forward to each meal. The villa we stayed in was spacious, immaculately clean, and beautifully designed. The outdoor areas were equally stunning—the beach, flowers, and the private little pool made for a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Safety was never a concern; we felt secure throughout our entire stay. Any requests we had were handled quickly and efficiently by the staff. Overall, it was a perfect stay, and we would highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a unique and luxurious getaway.
